The Harry Potter actress is due to return to the prestigious Ivy League uni in Providence, Rhode Island, in January after taking some time out from her studies in order to concentrate on her acting work.

The 22-year-old star initially enrolled there in 2010 but dropped out to focus on the final Harry Potter film, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2, shortly afterwards.

She then transferred to Oxford University in 2011 but dropped out when she landed a starring role in her latest flick The Perks Of Being A Wallflower.

Her spokesman confirmed: ‘Emma is planning on returning to studies in January.’
